**Trump Frustrated with Ongoing Conflict**
U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly getting impatient with the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, despite his efforts to broker a peace agreement.
According to sources close to Trump, he remains committed to finding a solution but is growing frustrated with the lack of progress. The sources claim that Trump had recently spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but the talks have not led to any significant breakthroughs.
**Ceasefire Proposal Rejected**
The Kremlin had agreed to a 30-day pause on strikes against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, but Kyiv has accused Russia of continuing to attack civilian targets. Washington and Kyiv had previously proposed a broader ceasefire that would include ground operations, but Moscow rejected the proposal unless it included a halt on foreign military support for Ukraine.
**Violence Continues**
Despite Trump’s efforts, the violence continues. Russian forces have launched heavy attacks on Ukrainian cities, killing at least four people and injuring 13 over the past day. Kyiv has also launched strikes against Russia, with Ukrainian drones attacking an oil pumping station in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai.
**Fighting Spreads**
The conflict is spreading, with Ukraine accusing Russia of staging a provocation by shelling a gas metering station in Kursk Oblast. The incident highlights the escalating tensions between the two countries and the challenges facing Trump’s efforts to broker a peace agreement.
